Personally, I use "ebook" and "ebook reader," at least for the most part. Sometimes I throw a hyphen in there when I feel like being hyphenated. I call my own device anything from "ebook reader," to Sony, to just Reader.
I wouldn't use the word "liseuse" in speech for the same reason kazbates doesn't. People around here (I think I'm probably within 50 miles of her) just wouldn't understand it.
Beyond that, I don't care what others call it, so long as I can call the device what I want to call it. (ie. "MINE!" )
